Code P0430 on 2003 SuperCrew
Hi All,
I thought about posting this in the 97-03 section but I think it will get more traffic here. I been getting this code off and on.
P0430 Catalytic Efficiency Below Threshold Bank 2. From what I've read from basic research it could be:
- o2 Sensor
- Catalytic Converter
- Plugs/Wires
- Other
My question is, if it were the o2 sensor, which o2 sensor is bank 2, and what do they mean by bank 2? Is there a way of testing the o2 sensor itself with a multimeter and seeing if it is good or bad that way? And is it an easy part to get to?
The truck has 160,000 Miles, and runs smooth as silk.
I recently got it from my good friend, and I think it is probably in need of plugs and wires anyway, so I'm going to go that route first, but I want to be sure the o2 sensor is not the problem. And the last thing I'd consider doing is changing out the cat it being the most costly.
Thanks in advance.
